Multi-monitor - Maximized windows cast shadows on adjacent monitors and workspaces

The shadow should not be casted when the window is maximized, regardless of the state.

I agree with comment #1. Maximized windows simply should not cast shadows in the first place. But last time I suggested that, Sam disagreed... I forget why.

I should note that this does not just affect multimon setups. I have a single monitor with the default 4 workspaces and see this bug. Maximized window on the top-right workspace casts a shadow onto windows on the top-left. In fact, non-maximized windows also cast if I just move them to the right edge of the screen.

From the duplicate bug:

image of the bug casting a shadow onto Chrome: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/104261466/bug-shadow.png

Note the lack of multimon and lack of maximized window causing this issue.

I should also point out that the stacking order of the windows matters.

If I click on the empathy window (top-right, which casts the shadow) then move to the top-left workspace I see the bug. If I then click on the Chrome window (which already has focus!) the shadow goes away. It won't come back unless I click on the Empathy window (even if I switch back to that workspace and Empathy has focus).
